EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning folio from the Bhagavata Purana, an ancient Hindu text, depicts the epic tale of Narasimha, an avatar of the god Vishnu, defeating the demon king Hiranyakashipu. The image, created between 1760 and 1770, showcases Narasimha in his half-lion, half-human form, disemboweling the defeated demon with his sharp claws. The scene is filled with a sense of triumph and the raw power of the deity. The three figures in the painting are intricately dressed in traditional Indian clothing. Hiranyakashipu, the demon king, is shown wearing a richly decorated coat and a daitya crown, symbolizing his regal status. His two sons, who are present during the scene, are dressed in sherwani, a long coat with a front opening and a tight-fitting waistcoat, which was a popular fashion choice during the 18th century in South East Asia. The painting is executed in opaque watercolor and gold on paper, with intricate details and vibrant colors. The use of gold adds a regal and divine touch to the image. The scene is set against a panoramic backdrop, with the landscape extending beyond the borders of the folio. The image is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of India and South East Asia, and provides a glimpse into the mythology, religion, and fashion of the region during the 18th century. It is currently housed in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and is a must-see for anyone interested in Hinduism, mythology, or the arts of Asia.
